Bought this for my son he can't his code, now it says ipod disabled connect to itunes .
If you repeatedly enter the wrong passcode, iPhone or iPod touch
will be disabled for longer intervals, before you can try again. After
too many unsuccessful attempts, you won't be able to try again until
you connect to the computer you normally sync with. Note that starting
with iPhone 2.1 software, there is a setting to cause the device to
erase itself after 10 consecutive incorrect password attempts. This
setting is off by default. It can be turned on by tapping Settings > General > Passcode Lock after you enter a correct passcode.
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your
device on the computer that was used to originally sync the iPhone or
iPod touch so that you can reset your passcode and resync the data from
the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different
computer that was never synced to the iPhone or iPod touch, you will be
able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode but your data
will not be present.
This works!

Hopefully the option wasnt selected to delete the ipod after a certain number of incorrect passcode entries.
When you connect your ipod to itunes its going to reformat it.
(meaning it gets erased, they do it as a precaution)
DONT FORGET THE CODE NEXT TIME!

Hi Rita Parker...
If you have forgotten the code, you can unlock the IPod by doing the following:
Connect your IPod to the primary computer you use it with (the first one IPod synced with), and open iTunes.
When you disconnect iPod from the computer, it will no longer be locked.
If you can't unlock IPod using either [the code or connecting it to the computer you use to manage its songs]. . . you can restore your iPod to factory settings using iPod Updater. Please note that this will erase all data on your iPod.
Afterwards, you can add your music and data back to your iPod.
If you want to change the primary computer that your IPod is associated with, do this:
1. Restore your iPod. WARNING: The restore process cannot be undone.
All of your songs and files will be deleted. Always make a backup of your important data.
2. Connect your iPod to the computer that you want to be the primary computer.
3. Open iTunes and synchronize.
If you can't unlock your iPod and you don't have access to the primary computer, your only option is to restore the IPod, which will erase all music and data.
